Deep Pick choiceDraft Josh Downs over T.J. Hockenson if both are on the board. This is a cross-position call, so raw WR and TE points are not the tiebreaker: Josh Downs is WR31 and No. 75 overall, 49 spots ahead of T.J. Hockenson at TE14 after the board weighs each player's position-specific Best Ball profile. T.J. Hockenson remains a strong roster-build alternative, but Josh Downs is the cleaner pick unless a newer structured status showing unrestricted participation or clearance would supersede this adjustment. Alec Pierce returning to unrestricted work would remove the temporary teammate opportunity adjustment.
